ri A R. Wrexham, .in. North Wales, three men 
died of Canine Madneft in October and No- 
vember, i78S. 
i heie melahcholy cafes fpread a general alarm ; but 
it ought to give great comfort and falisfaction to any 
one who may be bitten, to know that there is a fafe, 
e?-hV ahd effectual method of preventing infection, 
wiiich can feldom give pain, or require Ikill, and is in 
power of ’every perlbn to enipio . It is generally 
.allowed by ghyfidans, that the fpittle of a mad animal, 
- mailed into*a wound, is the only cauft hitherto known, 
eat can communicate Canine Madrid's to the human 
,. °dy. Tins poifon does no hidden mifehief, is not im- 
Ijnedcitely ablotbed into the blood ; and fnflicient op- i 
C‘>unityi8 given to remove- it, before any danger can ■ 
* ine. W hen a perfon is bitten, the plain arid obvious 1 
•,.1<ba!,!c ot preventing any future injury is, firft, to wipe 
jiOn tne ipittle with a dry cloth, and then to walh the 
I wound with cold water. After a plentiful affufion of 
u,j;f4,',tl water, may be employed with fafety and ad- 
(*.^an'-ah<J j not (lightly ind fupernciallv, but abundantly,

have elapiecl walh out the ft .on. A vifible proof may 
I ,ni obtained how foon and perfectly water can 
1 n-lnfe a 'Yound l'om 'faliva. As an argument that 
I p'Sht walking of the wound is not fufficient to cleanfe 
it efteduadv from the poifon, wc may mention, that, 
j 111 taales, attei'inoculation for the fmall pox, the 
1 u r>US nia^er bhs been attempted to be walked out 
'! °f the wound, by perfons who wilhed to prevent its 
effects > Yfii- the inoculated fmall pox appeared at its 
proper period. 1 heie unfuccefefu1 attempts were per- 
* binned lecretly, haitiiy, and timidly, by a female hand; \ 
but in a cale where the inoculated incifions were pro- \ 
babiy waffled with greater. •■•are, intedcion was pre- 
ventciu Such diets teach us the importance of patient 
perfeverance in walking away, the poifon ; but they 
! need no., abate our confidence that fuch perfcvcwrirp . 
r will certainly be fuccefsfnl. 
Tire ablution jhouid be accornpliffied-with great dili- 
gence and without delay ; aril may be performed by 
’[ the, patient w an- affiftant. Huvvi-cr, as the 
henfif, 1 of this dreadful diforvler always excites the 
greateit anxiet , a furgeon’sadv 4 and affiftance ought 
to bo obtained, as food as potable, in all cafes where 
' the ft in is injured: He will -.cute theft directions 
raoft dextcroufly and completely. in a baa wound the 
[ poifon may be conveyed deep into the fleffi, by long 
( teeth or lapeiations. 111fnchcircuiTiltanc.es, he i'uould 
open*and vyaih, and, whenever any painful uncertainty 
can regain, he fhould cup and fyringe every fufpicious 
j place. If the bite have been neglected till the infiam- 
ria aLtatt-begina. be iliculd, after ihaving of: the inflamed 
' ' . .xs.' , ■■rjri./rTr —- - ..-— - . *■ *. . 
By this inethSd of |>iiriiicacI6n,1t cannot Ke 3JuB?F<fn 
that every particle of poifon, and, confcquently, that , 
every came of danger may be effectually removed. 
IT appears highly probable that ablution might pre- 
vent the mifehief anting from all external Poilbns to 
which water can be freely and pienteoufly applied. In 
fome cafes this opinion might be decifively determined 
by experiment. 
i. Let a patient to be inoculated, have two incifions 
cut in one arm : to both of them apply genuine va- 
riolous matter. Make two like incifions, near together, 
in the other arm ; apply the fame variolous matter to 
the 3d wound, and ink only to the 4th. After i> 8» 
12, 20, or more hours, walh the 3d and 4th incifions 
with equal care, till the ink difappears ; when, it may 
be prefumed, that the variolous matter alfo is walhed 
out of the 3d incifion. A comparative view of the ap- 
pearance and* healing of the incifions, in both arms, 
would fatisfa&orily difeover whether the poifon was all 
wafhtd away from the 3d wound. Might not fuch an 
experiment be performed by an inoculator, without any 
rilk or injury to his patient, and would it not be conclu- 
fwe in regard both to the variolous and canine poifon ? 
a. It feems readable to expedt that the venom of 
the viper and oth*r ferpents might be wafhed out of 
the wounds they inflidt, if the orifices made by their 
teeth, were r incifions, to allow 
the free accefs of water. 
3. The oil of tobacco infufed into a„wound, is 
fpeedily mortal to fmall animals. Water might not 
quickly unite with this oil; but if foap fnds and a 
llream or injection of water, were copioufly and alter- 
nately ufed, the wound may probably be deterged from 
this poifon, fo as to obviate any dangerous co’ Sequences. 
Practicable trials might eafily be », i fed, that 
would fatisfaeforily determine, in any, o\ in all the 
cafes above ftated, and in others, how far this Method 
of treatment could prevent the mortal or the mif- 
chievous effects of external poifons. Very important 
conclullons might be deduced from fuch experiments 
judicioufly executed.

r [J ''HIS Water is well known to have a lingular Efficacy in Complaints of the Kidneys, Bladders, or Ureters, 
when thefe Organs are either obdrutded by tartarine Mucus, or calculous Matter, or are in an irritable or 
corroded and ulcerated State. Whild it abates the Acrimony of the Humours, it diflblves and wadies out the 
Mucus, and clears the Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder, from any Matter.of this Kind, that may be lodged in 
them; and tends not only to prevent the Generation of a Calculous, or to flop the Increafe of one, but to 
diminifh as a Solvent, fuch as are already formed.—It affords the mod defirable Relief in the St.-anguary, and 
when the Urine is voided with Pain and difficulty, and is thick and turbid, redoring it in a fhort Time to its 
natural Appearance. 
This Water may be taken to the Quantity of a Pint daily, at three dated Periods, Morning, Noon, and

The Genuine TINCTURE of CENTAURY, 
Invented by the late Sir JOHN HILL, M. D. 
Is faithfully prepared from his MS. Recipes by his Relidl 
and Executrix, the Hon. LADY HILL, at her house in 
Curzon-strcet, Bcrkeley-square, London. 
CENTAURY, from its superior properties as 
a Bitter, obtained from early Writers the title of “ Pel 
Terr#, or Gall of the Earth as a Stomachic Bitter 
it is unrivalled, in that it gives an appetite and sound diges- 
tion, and neither heats nor binds the body. Disorders of the 
stomach are become in a manner universal; want of appe- 
tite, sickness after meals, with extreme weakness, and giddi- 
ness of the head, are complaints heard from every mouth j 
loathing of food, weakness, weariness, and at times sickness 
without vomittine, an 1 in many a continued heart-burn, are 
also very general disorders ; They all arise from a weak and 
vitiated organ, causing indigestion, wind, and a rising in the 
stomach after meals. A tea-spoonfull of this Tin&ure t wice 
a day, speedily relieves the most dismal oppressions, and will- 
gradually restore the stomach to its lost tone, for in all nature 
there is no strengthener so safe and so efficacious; it is a most 
friendly medicine, for it powerfully excites appetite, and 
assists digestion, and its good qualities are often found upon 
even the first dose, by a sense of kindly warmth in the sto- 
mach, and a relief from that languor and sense of weakness 
attendant on these complaints. Add to these virtues, that 
Centaury is a Cordial friendly to Nature, and ready to 
give regulated, continued, and uninterrupted chearful spirits, 
thereby bracing and securing the Constitution.

FRYAR’S BALSAM: 
O R 
7 E S U ITS DROPS. 
So call’d from its being invented by a Fryary of yefuiiy and 
which is much celebrated abroad, under the Name of 
Baume de Commandeur : Or, Balfamum Commendatoris• 
7he Commander’s Balfam. 
THIS Balfam has been found to be the greateft Vulnerary that has yet come to our Knowledge. It 
cures all Wounds, if not mortal, inlefsTime, and perhaps with more fafecy than any Medicine 
again,provided the Wound be iirft of all dreffed with it and no other Medicine has been ufed; for when the 
Wound is at Iirft drefs’d with this Balfam, no Pus will be afterwards form’d ; whereas the Generation o f 
Pus is always the Effeftof dreffing with the sriinary Medicines. But this fo agglutinates the Parti and 
defends them from Corruption 9>ni /tikfs * extraordinary Cafe* $$'e£ts a Cure in a few Days, and 
fometimes in a few Hours. 
It cures all Strains, or Bruifes, and rfnks the Swelling, and if applied immediately takes off the 
Blacknefs occaftoned thereby, Jn which Cafes obferve the following Dire£lions. To the Part tha 
is bruifed or ftrain’d, apply the Balfam with a Feather, Lint, or Cotton, or for want of thefe, your 
finger, then bind on gently a clean Linen Rag wet with the Balfam which let remain till the Heat and 
Pain is over, keeping it all the while moift with the Balfam, which you may do, by droping a little of i t 
en the Out fide. 
In frefh Wounds, bring the Lips together, and if large, ufea few Stiches to keep them Clofe, and drop 
the balfam thereon, or apply it with a Feather all over the Wound, then bind gently on, a Rag wet with 
the balfam as aforementioned. But if the Wound happens to be in a Part where you can’t conveniently 
bind any thing on, anoint it with a Feather, and apply a bit of Lint, or Cotton, which will flick ofitfelf. 
Ir any Arteries or Veins are wounded or cut afunder apply the Balfam with a bit of Lint, holding it to 
the Part with your Thumb a fmall fpace of time, and repeat it till the blood is ftop’d, then bind ou the 
Lint with a Rag over it as before. 
It is ufed with the fame fuccefs on Horfes, Dogs and other Creatures. A few Drops will cure a 
Horfe’s back when gall’d, a broken Kuee, or Wound in the Foot, whether caus'd by a Nail or otherwife. 
All Wounds or bruiles in beafts to bedreflM as abovemention’d only icmember to cut off the Hair, if any 
be, above the Part affliflcd. 
It is taken inwardly in many Cafes, being as innocent as the Food we cai, and is fo admirable a Remedy 
fnr the Cholic, that fifteen or twenty Drops, mix’d with a Glafs of White Wine, loon iemoves the In- 
difpofuion. It is excellent for Pains in the flomach, in which Cafe, if the Patient is feverifh, drink abou t 
Twenty Drops, two cr three Times a Bay in thin broth inllead of Wine, it alfo clcanfes the flomach, 
procures an Appetite, and is a verv great Reiterative in broken and decay’d Conftitutions. 
Twenty Drops on a Lump of fugar, taken in a Morning, will fortify the flomach againft the In 
ciemency of the Weather, and is far better than any Dram. 
It is the bell Pocket Medicine in the World, cfpecially forfportfmen and Travellers, who ought neve 
o be without it, confidering the Number of Accidents they are continually liable to. 
In all Cafes remember to make ufe of no Plaifter or other Medicine with itj always apply cold, aP 
keep the bottle clofe flopp’d to prevent Evaporation. 
For COUGHS or COLDS, 
Take fifteen or twenty Drops the firft thing in the Morning, and the laft at Night, on a X/ompof juga 
a little Honey, or Tea, made of Penny Royal or balm. 
For the TOOTH-ACH, apply the Balfam to the Toolh with a Bit of Lint. 
As there are many Preparations fold for Fryar’s balfam, it may be nc- 
ccffary to mention, that Genuine Balfam which may be depended on to be 
the right, is feal’d with Good Safnaritant and round the Seal, 
viz. The true Fryar’s balsam, the fame as here.— 
Is all Cafes this Medicine mull be ufed as foon after the Hurt is 'received

tions and ; then it is by no means proper. 
On the firft Application, Patients are apt to let the Draftings lie on till 
they grow ftifF and adhere cidfely to the Part, and upon taking them off

And now faithfully prepared from his MS. Recipes, by hit 
Relidt and Executrix, the Hon. LADY HILL, at her 
house in Curzon-street, Berkdey-square; London. 
MORE than thirty years experience has con- 
firmed the unequalled efficacy and safety of this,ele- 
gant Medicine In the immediate relief, and gradual cure pf 
Coughs, Colds, Sore Throats, Hoarseness, Difficulty of 
Breathing, Catarrhs, Asthmas, and Consumptions; for it h} 
the greatest preserver of the Lungs, and contains all the heal- 
ing, softening, and soothing qualities of that salubrious 
tradEof flowers, called Honey, and the essential parts of the 
richest Balsams; it is as restorative as Asses Milk, and never 
disagrees with the stomach. A tea-spoonful in a wine glass 
of water is a dose, converting the water into a most pleasant 
balsamic liquor* to be taken morning and evening. A com- 
mon coid yields to the benign influence of this Medicine id a 
few hours; and when resorted to before the Lungs aie ul- 
cerated, all danger of Consumption is certainly pi evented* 
Such are the faint outlines of the merit* of Sir John HiLt’s 
Balsam of Honey, a preparation of most exalted efficacy, the 
result of long researches into nature, by the Linn.t.us of 
Britain; a man who dedicated his Jifp to Botany, and 
justly sought the true means of health in the vegetable king- 
dom—-but as the severest human laws are unequal to the 
prevention of extreme fraud by coining lind forgery, so it i* 
not to be admired, that the merits of this Medicine have in- 
duced base and avaricious men to vend counterfeit prepara- 
tions of it, preparation* not merely devoid of all efficacy, but 
also highly deleterious, for it is not long since that the Lady 
of the Rev. Mr. Fowler, of Peterborough, had nearly fallen 
a sacrifice to a spurious Balsam of Honey, sold by a 
Person of that place, and which he shewed ro have been 
brought by him, as genuine, of a wholesale Druggist in Lon-

Univerfally approved and recommended by the moll eminent 
Phyficians, in preference to Foreign Tea, as the moil plea- 
fing and powerful Reiterative in all Nervous Diforders Ul*> 
therto difeovered. 
THIS celebrated Tea is peculiarly efficacf- 
ous in' moil inward wafleings, obilinatc coughs, and 
confumptive habits ; it thins the blood, eafes the moll vio- 
lent pains of the head and flomach, and is a wonderful af- 
fwager of the excruciating pains of the gout and rheumatifm* 
by promoting gentle perfpiration ; and, by the Nobility and 
Gentry, much admired for breakfaft; it is grateful to tlie 
taflc and findl, gently aftringes the fibres of the llomacii, 
and gives them a proper tenfity, which is reqnifite to a. 
good digeition; and nothing can be better adapted to help 
and nourilb the confutation after late hours, or making free 
with wine. 
It is highly elleemed in the Eaft and Weil Indies, being 
unlike India Tea, which abrades and wears away the fub- 
flance of the folids, but on the contrary, afts as a general 
Reiterative Cordial, upon debilitated Patients, being a So- 
vereign remedy in bilious complaints contracted in hot cli-

IF the fingers, hands, or lower parts of* the 
arms be injured, they fiiould be immediately 
iminerfed in cold vinegar—if other parts of the 
body be burnt or fcalded, let cloths wetted with 
vinegar be, laid upon them, taking care that the 
cloths are kept Continually wetted with frelh 
vinegar; and this, in flight cafes,// early and 
conjianilv applied, will effect a cure without any 
oilier application. In two or three hours after 
the application of it the patient will find cafe; 
but as inflammation and heat may perhaps re- 
turn, and if not attended to, produce a fore, 
the vinegar mu ft be applied as often as any 
painful fen fa lion comes on. But, if it lliould 
happen, either through neglect of tiling the vi- 
negar fpeedily,or not continuing it longenough, 
tiiat the part tliould blilier, and degenerate into 
a fore, it will readily heal by tiling chalk and 
poultices hereafter mentioned. 
In fe.vere burns and fealds, the vinegar, muff 
be conftanfly applied for 10 or 12 hours ; after 
w hic h a bread and milk poultice mull be put oil, 
and remain for eight hours ; and when it is r'eL 
moved, the fores my ft be covered entirely with 
chalk finely powdered, and as much mud be 
11 fed as will quite abforb the matter upon the 
lores, and appear quite dry all over then). A 
belli poultice is then laid all over the whole, 
and the fame fort of drelling with chalk and 
poultice is to be repeated morning and evening 
till (be lores are healed. In cafes where there 
are large blifters, they mult be opened with a 
needle in different parts, and the water muff be 
‘“gently prelTed out with a linen cloth, then ap--,

Putrid Diseases.—In confirmation of the ac- 
counts published 'concerning the successful appli- 
cation of yeast or barm, in putrid diseases, we 
are well assured that a poor family near Dromore, 
in Ireland, . hav« lately received great benefit 
from it. 
A poor man, who, with his sister, and three 
of his chii ren, lay dangerously ill of a malignant 
fever, attended with - symptoms of putrescence 
(which had already proved fatal to another of his 
sisters), applied by his afHifted wife for relief to 
a Gerultm.in in that neighbourhood, who had 
just seen the favourable account of the yeast, on 
which lie recommended it to be tried, and Dodlor 
Hwll, who lives near that place, and attended 
tias poor family gratis, on its being mentioned to 
1 Him, highly approved of the application, as dur- 
j" ihg'his long sirperin tendance of the 'jis’f Regiment 
in the garrison of Minorca, he had seen the great 
efficacy of wort. Accordingly under his direftion 
a-tablc-spoo:iful of barm, diluted in spring water, 
I was given every hour with a decoftion of bark, 
j with the happiest success. The poor man and 
I his whole family recovered, and he declared, that 
( every time lie took the barm, he found immedi- 
j ate relief. 
'This is published by the Gentleman who re- 
| commended the yeast ; but it does not rest 'on 
1 anonymous support, as the truth of the account 
1 has-been attested by Dr. Hall, of Park-row, near 
I Dromore.

'/lie Properlites of Chocolate, so difficult to be procured ge- 
nuine, need not be enlarged upon, nor its medicinal virtues 
calculated ; but as its general adulteration has brought it into 
disrepute, the present attempt to restote so pleasing a repast to 
the Fashionable World, by a total removal of the cause, may 
parhap* not be unwelcome information, and may meet general 
approbation.

■* 1 J _ — 1 /-V A Friendly Caution againjl drinking Tea, Cojee, Chocolate, Sec. 
•very hot. 
AS it is well known that many drink thefe Liquors very hot, without 
apprehending any Danger from it, tho’ it yearly hurts the Nerves 
and btomachs of Multitudes; it is hoped, that the following Reafons will, 
for the future, deter them from fo pernicious a Piaftice. 
The Learned Dr. Bierhaave, in the fecond .VoJ. of his Elements of 
Cbymirtry, Procefs 117, found, by Experiment, that a little morp than 100 
Degrees of Warmth, in Fahreifccit'i Quicklilver Thermometer, would 
coagulate the Serum of Blood; whence be reafonably infers, that this 
Degree of Heat will be apt to coagulate and thicken the Blood to loch a 
Degree as to|endang;r Life : And yet this dangerous Degree of Heat is but 
a few Degrees more than the natural Warmth of the Blood; Bolbm Heat 
being 94. Degrees; Blood Heat 96 ; the Heat of the Blood in a burning 
Fever 112 • at which Time the Blood is much thickened by that Dr gree 
of Heat. How very unwholfome, then, mull it be to drink Tea, &c. 
eo Degrees hotter than the Blood 1 which is found, by putting the above- 
mentioned Thermometer into the hotter Tea, to be of that furprizing 
Degree of Heat, at which it is commonly drank ; and what was thought 
but a moderate warm Tea, was found to be 30 Degress hotter than the 
Blood. No wonder, then, that fuch very hot Liquors not only thicken 
the Blood, but alio relax and weaken the Nerves and Stomach, and thereby 
hurt the Digeftion, and produce Cholicks, Sec. 
And accordingly it is the unanimous Opinion ot the Phyficians, that the 
Principal Hurt of Tea, See. lies in drinking them too hot. It is hoped, 
ih-refore, that thefe Confiderations will have fome Weight, with thofe 
who have any Regard for their Health.

Acorns.—Dr. Marx, an eminent German 
Physician, has published some Experiments, shew- 
ing that the acorn may be converted to many 
salutary purposes. He ascribes great medical 
virtues to a kind of coffee made from acorns, and 
the method of preparing it as follows : 
Take sound and ripe acorns, peel off the shell 
or husk, divide the kernels, dry them gradually, 
and then roast them in a close vessel or roaster 
I keeping them constantly stirring, in doing which, 
special care must be taken that they be not burnt 
nor over-roasted, either of which would be hurt- 
ful, An ounce of these roasted acorns, ground 
j and prepared like coffee, to be taken morning 
| and evening, either aloti'e or mixed with coifee 
| and sweetened with sugar, eitlver with or with.

Acorns have been always esteemed a wholesome 
nutriment for men, and by their medical qualities 
they have been found to cure slimy obstructions 
in the discern, and to remove nervous complaints. i'f/m

System recommended by the Humane Society 
to be adopted in cases of apparent death. 
An erroneous'opinion that dead bodies are not 
to be removed till the Coroner has held an Inquest 
on them, has militated against the recovery of 
many persons apparently dead. The drowned 
should be conveyed, with the head raised, with 
«s much ease and expedition as possible to the 
nearest recclving-house, the mouth and nostrils 
cleaned,—Children put into bed between two; 
persons.—Adults laid upori a bed, in cold wea-! 
ther, near a fire—in warm weather air should he 
freely admitted.' Warm ashes, salt, sharp li- 
quids, nettles, and other things injurious to the 
skin, should be avoided; as should in all these 
cases, bleeding ;together with the too general prac 
tice ot rolling on a cask, or holding the patient by 
the heels with the head downwards. The body, 
and particularly the breast and back, should be 
gently rubbed with flannels steeped in Warm 
brandy, whilst hot bricks, tiles, or water in 
bottles, should be applied to the bands and the< 
soles of the feet. The smoke of tobacco should; 
be conveyed into the body by means of an instru • 
ment, or tobacco pipe ; and the pipe of a bellows 
should be put into the throat, the nostrils being 
closed, or into one nostril whilst the other and, 
the mouth arc closed. When the lungs are filled 
with air, the chest and belly should be gently 
pressed, so as to imitate natural respiration. 
The sufferer by intense cold, should be gentry 
rubbed with snow', ice, or cold water. In cases 
of suspension by the cord, bleed in the jugular, 
apply cupping glasses to the head and neck, aqd 
leeches to the temples. On suffocation hj tipxtws 
airt Or the vapour of coals, sulphur mints, dec. cold 
water should be frequently applied to the face and 
body, each being dried at intervals. In appa- 
rent death from lightning, tire treatment should 
be similar; as, in the same degree that heat is a 
stimulant upon a cold cody, cold is an atfluant 
upon inward heat. This is singularly exemplified 
by the learned Dr. Struve, of Gorlitz, in Lusi- 
tania, who, in his correspondence with our Dr. 
Hawes, relates, that a labourer near Gorlitz, 
carrying his sickle or reaping-hook upon his 
head, a fl.ish of lightning struck, but being con. 
dufted by the point of the sickle to the ground, 
only slightly stunned him ; whilst another man, 
near Magdeburg, in 1797 was struck by light 
ning, probably attracted by a sickle, which 
he likewise carried, when “ his clothes and 
shoes were rent in pieces, and his body was 
naked, the skin burned in the body and the feet.” 
In this state, lying apparently dead, a violent 
shower of hail and rain, by thoroughly wetting 
him, restored animation, and, like a person awak- 
ing from a sleep, he was astonished at the state 
of his clothes and body.' 
The Humane SoVrety direfts, in each of the | 
•above cases, that when necessary, the means re- j 
commended for the drowned should he resorted . 
to; and that on signs of life (on each 
occasion) a tea spoon fall of w«rrn water should 
be given, and if swallowed, h should be foilowed 
by warm wine, or diluted bfandy. The patient, 
-as soon as the process permits, should be pat into 
a warm bed, and attended to, without despairing, 
though unsuccessful, for three or four hoiufc.—To j 
which Dr. Johnson adds, that “ the appearance 
of the loss of life, either without alcmSwfi •■cause, 
or from the sadden effefts of surfeits, or cold li- 
quors taken hastily during free perspiration," 
swooning fits, See. tl require immediate chafing 
and rubbing with volatile spirits ; the use of a 
decodVion of spices (such as ginger and Jamaica 
pepper) mixed with some strong wine, or common ' 
spirits, put into the mouth by tca-spbon-fulL; " 
also repeated trials to blow up the lungs, apd 
raise the chest."

PURE ACID PART of the FRUIT in a SOLID and DRY FORM, 
Resembling in Appearance WHITE SUGAR CANDT. 
Prepared only by H. COXWELL, No. 200, Temple-Bar, Condor, 
Each Package signed by Himself ‘ with Directions. 
Tl HIS grateful Acid now obtained under the present convenient and 
elegant form of Crystals, most completely answers every possible 
purpose of fresh Lemon Juice ; and with these further advantages, 
that being in a dry state it is extremely portable, occupying very little 
room, and remaining unchanged in any climate :—and withal, being 
less expensive than Lemons or Lemon Juice. 
In the Domestic way, it makes admirable Punch; and is particularly 
convenient on the table or the sideboard for every occasion where 
Lemon Juice is required. 
At Sea, it may be said to be invaluable; many of the Ships in 
His Majesty's Navy, and in the Honourable East India Company's 
service, have for some time past been supplied with it in considerable 
quantities. 
It dissolves instantly in cold water ; an ounce by weight making 
a pint bottle of Juice of the common strength.

A LTHOUGH the beautiful Light produced by thefe Lamps is obtained by a very Ample 
contrivance, yet the principle being new, fome account of it may be acceptable. 
It chiefly confifts in difpofmg the Wick in thin parts, fo that the Air may come into contadl 
:11 the burning fuel, by which means, together with an increafe of the Current of Air occa- 
fionedby rarefaQion in the Glafs Tube, the whole of the fuel is converted into flame. 
TheWicks are circular, and, the more readily to regulate the quantity of Light, are fixed on 
aLrafs Collar, with a Rack, by means of which they are raifed ordeprefled at pleafure. 
To lx the Wick on, a Wood Mandril is contrived, which is tapered at one end, and has a 
Cioove urned at the other. 
The Vick has a felvage at one end, which is to be put foremoft on the Mandril, and moved 
UP to tin Groove, then putting the Groove into the Collar of the Wickholder, the Wick is eafily 
Pufhed foward upon it. 
The Mickholder and Wick being put quite down in their place, the fpare part of the Wick 
ftould, wile dry, be fet alight, and fuffered to burn to the edge of the Tubes; this will leave it 
evener tha cutting, and, being black by burning, will be much eafier lighted ; for this reafon, 
*he black/hould never be quite cut off. 
The 
lamp fhould be filled an hour or two before it is wanted, that the Cotton may imbibe 
*he Oi and draw the better. 
j Lamps whichdiaVe a Refervoir arid Valve need no cither direftion for filling than to do 
t Trimming\Pot, carefully obfeVving when finl; then pulling up the; Valve by 1 he 
P°% being turned w;th the other hand, be replaced] without fpjlling a droj. 
Fhe Oil muft be only of the Spermaceti kind, commonly called Chamber Oil, which may 
giperally be diftinguifhed by its palenefs, tranfparency, and inoffenfive feent; all thofe Oils which 
of the red and brown colour and of an offenfive feent, fhould be carefully avoided, as their 
glutinous parts clog the Lamp, and the impurities in fuch Oil not being inflammable, will accu- 
mulate and remain in the form of a cruft on the Wick. Seal Oil is nearly as pale and fweet 
as Chamber Oil, but being of a heavy fluggifh quality, is not proper for Lamps with fine Wicks. 
Whenever bad Oil has been ufcd, on changing it, the Wick mud alfo be changed, 
after having imbibed the courfe particles in its capillary Tubes, it will not draw up the fine on 
To obtain the greatefl degree of Light, the Wick fhould be trimmed exa£lly even, the Flame 
will then be completely equal. 
There will be a great advantage in keeping the Lamp clean, efpecially the Burner and Air 
Tubes; -he negleft of cleanlinefs in Lamps is too common: a Candleftick is generally cleaned 
every tine h is ufed, fo fhould a Lamp; and if a Candleftick is not to be objeaed to becaufe it 
does nd give light after the Candle is exhaufted, fo a Lamp fhould not be thought ill of if it does 
not gi£ light when it wants Oil or Cotton ; but this laft has often happened, becaufe the deficiency 
is lefsvifible. 
Te Glafs Tubes are beft cleaned with a piece of wafh leather. Dll. HAYGARTH’S RULES TO PREVENT 
INFECTIOUS FEVERS. 
It may he proper previously to observe, that the poison of a contagious fever, m a 
Jwa//, dose, and dirty room, infects a very great proportion of mankind; not less 
than 2 6 21, or a still higher proportion; hut in a large, wry, clean 
apnrtment, even putrid fevers arc seldom or never infectious. When this poisonous 
Vapour is much diluted with fresh air, it is not noxious.—jFVm fl /arg* collec- 
tion, and an attentive consideration, of facts relative to this distemper, have been 
formed the following Rules. 
1. As safety from danger entirely depends on cleanliness and fresh 
air, the room door of a patient ill of an infectious fever, especially 
111 the habitations of the poor, should never be shut; a window in 
*t, during the day, ought to be frequently opened. Such regulations 
'vould be highly useful, both to the patient and nurses; but are 
particularly important, previous to the arrival of any visitor. 
2. The bed curtains should never be close drawn round the pa- 
tient ; but only on the side next the light, so as to shade the face. 
0. Dirty clothes, utensils, &c. should be frequently changed, im- 
mediately immersed in cold water, and washed clean when taken out 
of it. 
4. All discharges from the patient should be instantly removed, 
’fhe floor near the patient's bed should be rubbed clean every day 
hdth a wet mop or cloth. 
5. The air in a sick room has, at the same time, a more infectious 
Quality in some parts of it than in others. Visitors and attendants 
should avoid the current of the patient's breath,—the air which 
ascends from his body, especially if the bed curtains be closed,—and 
the vapour arising from all evacuations. When medical or Other 
duties require a visitor to be placed in these situations of danger, 
infection may be frequently prevented by a temporary suspension of 
respiration. 
6. Visitors should not go into an infectious chamber with an 
empty stomach ; and, in doubtful circumstances, on coming out, 
they should blow from the nose, and spit from the mouth, any 
infectious poison which may have been drawn in by the breath, 
and may adhere to those passages.

The First Report front the Committee of the Hovst 
of Commons appointed to consider of the prtibiti 
High Price of Provisions. 
Vour Committee beg leave to lav before the 
House, a*i Supplement to their hirst Report, A 
statement of some of the Various modes in which 
Rice has been used, which afford the strongest 
confirmation of the opinion expressed in that Re- 
port, that the quantity of food to be derived from 
equal quantities of Rice and Wheat is, in a very 
great proportion, in favour of the former. They 
think it necessary also to obsc'rVe, that the extreme 
utility ot this article, particularly as the food of 
children, renders it highly desire-able that it should 
in no degree be applied to unnecessary consump- 
tion; and that those families; which make up tor 
the retrenchment of a certain quantity of Bread 
and Flour, by the use of Rice in any thing near an 
equal quantity, instead of forwarding the object of 
His Majesty’s Proclamation, directly counteract 
It appears from tho evidence of Mr. Bernard; 
Treasurer of the Foundling Hospital, that the use 
of Rice has been adopted in that charity; in A Very 
considerable extent; evpr since July 1795: and 
t.iat it has been found a wholesome and nutritious 
food. It has been given to the children for their 
dinner, two days in the week, in the room of pud- 
ding made of Flour and Suet ; 2libs, of Rice, 
soaked in water over night, and baked with 18 r al- 
iens ot milk and Gibs, of treacle, have been found 
to be a sufficient meal for <170 children, and h.l y 
equivalent to their former food, consisting of 
lV8lbs. of flour, with 20 gallons of milk, 20llTs of 
suet and some other ingredients. The saving to 
the Hospital (when Flour was 3fd. per lb. or 75s. 
per sack, and Rice 2|d. per lb. or about 23s. per 
cwt.) was 51. los. Id. out of 71. 12s. 10d, (the 
cost of two weekly meals) or above 300k per an- 
num, being more than 35s. per head ; and the di- 
minution ot the annual consumption of Flour was 
above 17.OQOlbs. Since the time at which this 
calculation was made, the priceof Rice has risen in a 
gi eater proportion than the price of Flour, yet the 
amount of the greater increase upon a small quan- 
tity ot Rice is so much less than that of the smaller 
increase upon a large quantity of Flour, that the 
pecuniary saving to the Hospital would, upon the 
same number of children, be much greater at the 
p. o.Nent moment than what has been above stated. 
The advance upon Flour, from 75s. per sack to 
120s. adds about 27s. to the cost of each weekly 
meal for 170 children ; the advance of Rice from 
aoout 23s. per cwt. to 4t3s. adds only 4s. 4 . d. to 
the same. Since that time the number of cmldfen 
nas increased to 220; and they have nOw also 
Rico porridge for their breakfast three days a 
week ; the saving in money and in Hour is there- 
fore proportionabfy increased. 
our k-ommittee have submitted this minute de- 
tail to the- attention of the House, for the purpose 
of obviating the impression, that the present near- 
ness of Rice nearly precludes ail saving of ex- 
pence, by the substitution ofthat article in the 
place off lour.—Wlren the great supplies which 
are expected arrive, the price must undoubtedly- 
fall, and the advantage in that respect will increase 
in a very large proportion. But at the present 
ratei of Rice and Flour, it 14 still so considerable 
a; to be, even in that point of view alone, an ob- 
ject of great importance. After an experiment,- 
carried on to such an extent, for suen a* length of 
time, and upon such a number of children of all 
ages, from the age of four to fourteen, without the 
least detriment to their, health, under the care of a 
Gentleman, whose exemplary attention to the con- 
cerns of this Charily entitles his evidence to the 
greatest credit, it cannot be doubted, that the use 
of this article, as a part of the food of children, will 
be attended with the greatest advantage, by dimi- 
nishing both the ex pence of their maintenance and 
the consumption of Flour. 
It is also stated by Mr. Bernard, that, to dress 
the Rice to advantage, it should be boiled gently 
for three Lours (or if in soft water for a less time) 
over a small fire, not larger than what cottager# 
usually have ; and that it requires no more attend- 
ance than the woman of the family can give, con- 
sistently with her ordinary employments. 
Mr. Bernard also informed your Committee, 
that Rice had been used, extensively and benefi- 
cially, by the directions of (he Bishop of Durham, 
in the subsistence of labourers at Durham, Bishop’s 
Auckland, and Mongewoll, and various other 
places, according to a receipt, by which from 6 to 
dibs, of food were produced from lib. of Rice 
boiled in three quarts of water, with the addition 
of one ounce of hog’s lard or hog’s fat, and a little 
salt and allspice. 
Some further experiments, made by the same 
Gentleman, on the use of Rice mixed with Flour 
in making bread, are also inserted in the Appen- 
dix; together with a letter from the Rev. Mr, 
Smith, of Wendovcr, by which it appears, that 
when Flour was 3 Id. per lb. and Rice 4d. per lb. 
Bread was made, of an excellent quality, at die 
rate of Is. |d. per quartern loaf, by mixing 2 tbs. 
of Rice with 11 lbs. of Flour, and preparing ft 
in the manner there stated. The Fiour used in 
this experiment was made from Foreign Wheat, 
coarsely dressed, so that 46 lbs. of Flour were pro- 
duced from a bushel of Wheat weighing 56 lbs. 
It has also been stated to your Committee, by 
Mr.vVansittart (Member for the county of Berks) 
that lias found, by repeated trials, that 6' lbs. of 
Flour with 1 lb. of Rice produced 11 lb. 8 oz. of 
very good Bread, and that such Bread has been 
used without complaint in his, family, at the redu- 
ced allowance often ounces per day tor each per- 
son : 7 lbs. of Flour usually make 8 lbs. 11 oz. of 
Bread. The increase ot the quantity of Bread, by 
using Rice in that proportion insioau of Flour, is 
therefore 2 lbs, 13 oz.; and it appears from 
thence, that the additional Bread produced by add- 
ing I lb. of Rice to 6 bs. of Flour is above .hree 
times greater than what would have been pro- 
duced by adding lib. of Flour to the same quan- 
tity. 
Your Committee have also inserted in their Ap_ 
ipendix two receipts, communicated by Mr, Hugh 
llnglis, Cliairman of the East India Company, by 
Em eh it appears thgt Rice may be used with, great advantage when boiled with beef dripping I 
or salted mutton. 8 
The result of a great many ,experiments upon a 8 
mixture of Rice and Scotch barley boiled together, ■ 
and sweetened with sugar, is described in a letter |1 
from Mr. Parish to the Magistrates of Montrose, I 
•which was transmitted to your Committee by Mr. I 
David Scott. It appears from this letter, that the j| 
use of this species ot porridge, as a substitute for | 
porridge made of oat-meal, has- been carried to | 
a considerable extent; and that the addition to 
the quantity of food, as well as the diminution ot 
cxpcncc, prove it to be one of the most advanta- 
geous methods of preparing Rice.

From the last accounts via Edinburgh, it is with 
- concern we mention t rat the price of herrings at 
Burntisland, was, by fie latest advices, at 26s. .3d. 
per trait; that man r north country boats had 
gone off from the fishing, some of them with a thou- 
sand pounds sterling <jach boat, earned this fishing 
season ; that the fish,curers have left off purchas- 
ing, on account of t|ieir barrels and salt behm 
left on hand, no expert for the West Indies being 
allowed, either with c|r without bounty. 
However wc have some consplation to find that 
the present release of! salt duty free for the use of 
cod, ling, and other vvjiite fish,’ to be used for home 
consumption, has hapnily been adopted, and by re- 
cent advices to Mr. ffifrvm, a large bank has been 
discovered lately nfar Cambeltown, which can 
produce several, tin usand tons of fish fit for the 
\ London markets ai d other markets in Britain. 
His communication i tates, that this fishery will last 
from dhe end of January to March, and that sixty 
or eighty vessels fror* thirty to sixty tons burthen, 
may be successfully employed. Blit, as we hear this 
plan is to be laid before the annual Committee of

Honourable Board qf Trustees for the fisheries, 
we must defer adding.any thing at present, on so 
important a subject.

by the fishermen, a Fishing Admiral, for the east 
coast of Scotland, f consider it my duty to do 
every thing in my pqwer that may tend to pro- 
mote the interests of said fishery. And whereas 
some evil-disposed pi rsons did upon Saturday the 
■ 27 th December last, irculate a report that the fish- 
ermen would be imp essed, and however false and 
. unjust, yet it had t ie effect to cause about two 
hundred of them leave (heir employment.—This 
, is therefore, request! ig said', fishermen and all 
others to return imhie liately to the herring fishery 
in the Frith of Fopth, .yhere every encouragement 
will be given them to fish ii> a regular and peace-" 
. able manner. Captain Clements, Commander of 
all the gun vessels on this station, has received or- 
ders to give them evi ry aid and protection durimr 
the fishing, which is expected to continue til! the 
first of March. And should any from indolence, 
feeing full of money cr otherwise, refuse to return, 
but!) to their own loss and the community, it is re- 
quested that all Magistrates and Justices of the 
Peace, at the different ports and creeks in Scot- 
land where such arc,twill take an account of the 
1 tames of tlio fishermcii and their boats' that at an 
after period they may lap dealt .with accordingly.

Recipe for making Glue.—Take half an ounce of 
isinglass in small shreds, put it in a bottle with a 
pint of common brandy or rum, andvset it in a 
warm place near the fire till the isinglass is dis- 
solved ; filler the liquor through a muslin cloth, 
and preserve this liquor in a glass bottle well stop- 
ped for use. This forms an excellent glue for woe 1, 
and is always ready for use. It will keep lot a 
long time if the bottle stands in a dry place. It 
will also serve to furnish impressions from medals ; 
for which purpose it is only necessary to cover the 
surface of the medal with some of the liquor, and 
let it dry thereon : it will become hard and trans- 
parent like glass, and may be easily separated from 
the m;dal by the point of a knife. A glueuiay be

SIR, January 5, 1820. 
In The General Evening Post of the 1st insf, 
I observe an account of the efficacy of mustard whey, in 
a case of a paralytic attack followed by two fevers ; and 
also saying, “ We should be glad if we could tell our • 
Readers what mustard whey is, and how it is made.”— 
I send you the following, extracted from The Domestic 
Medicine, by AVr. Buchan, M.D. eighth edition, page 764. 
“ Take milk and water, of each a pint, bruised 
mustard seed an ounce and a half; boil them together 
until the curd is perfectly separated, then strain the 
whey through a cloth. The dose is an ordinary tea- 
cup full, four or live times a day. This is the most 
elegant and efficacious method of exhibiting mustard; 
it warms and invigorates the habit, and promotes the 
different secretions; in the low state produced by ner- 
vous fevers, it will supply the place of wine; is also of 
great use in the chronic rheumatism, palsy, dropsy, &c. 
The addition of a little sugar will render it more agree- 
able.”—I remain, Sir, respectfully, your’s, T. W. CONSOLATION TO THE TREMULOUS

of checks on hankers may prevent the fraud arising 
from the discharge of the amount by acids, simply 
by writing the amount on the back ot the check, 
immediately opposite the signature; the check being 
likewise filled tip in the usual way. The plan may 
be universally adopted without trouble, delay, or 
expense ; and it is perfectly secure, for any attempt 
to discharge the writing on the back would injure 
the signature, and render the check useless. The following fact is des rvmg of record, as an inter- 
esting addition to what has hitherto been discovered on 
the suoject of vegetable physiology, and as enabling the 
loveis of flowers to prolong for a day the enjoyment of 
their short-lived beauty. Most flowers begin to fade 
after being kept 24 hours in water ; a few may be 
revived by substituting fresh water ; but all (the most 
fugacious, such as the poppy, and, perhaps one or 
two others, excepted) may be completely restored by the 
use of hot water. For this purpose place the flowers in 
scalding water, deep enough to cover about one-third of 
the length of the stem, and by the time the water has 
become cold, the flowers will become erect and fresh j 
then cut off the codied ends and put them inte cold 
water. FOR INVALIDS, AND LADIES IN THEIR 
ACCOUCHEMENT. 
POCOCR’s PATENT BOETHEMA MAT. 
TRESSES, peculiarly calculated for the relief, sup- 
port, and comfort of indisposed persons, of every descrip- 
tion. 11 is well known that to those wfjo are obliged to lay 
much in bed, a-change of .position is a great relief and com- 
fort, and exceedingly conducive to the restoration of debi- 
litated nature. The inconvenience of being propped up 
with pillows, and the danger of admitting the cold air,- 
however uncomfortable, have hitherto been unavoidable; 
Lut'd is and'distinguishing property of the floc- 
theraa to prevent both, as by turning a small handle a-per- 
son may be raised in their bed to any degree of elevation 
they please, from a rec'unbent ton reclining and sitting po- 
sition, without pain or effort, or the least danger ot taking 
cold, and without a possibility of the machine*# receding 
any other means than turning the handle the contrary way. 
—To enumerate the instances in which suffering may be re- 
lieved, or the comfort of life increased, would be impos- 
sible ; those who are afflicted with asthmas, cr any cor> 
plaint i.t the lungs;, may have their beads and chests ele- 
vated. which to fbciu is essential both to their comfort and 
safety ; those confined by gout, rheumatism, or any other 
painful complaint, must be productive of the greatest com* 
fort, and prevent all unpleasant sensations. But the utility 
ef the Patent Boethema to the female sex in the time of 
their accouchement, when rite least exertion or cold so 
often prove of fatal consequences, is, perhaps, beyond all 
thru can be said of its utility is other case;*, since there can 
be no doubt but infinite comfort will be obtained, and 
many lives of the utmost value and importance to the in- 
fant families, husbands, and friends, providentially saved 
by the timely use of fids in Valuable invention. The above,

To preserve Black-lead Pencil Drawings. 1 
—A thin wash of isinglass may be used, to pre- 
vent their rubbing out. The same effect may be 
produced by the simple application of skimmed 
milk ; the best way of using this is to lay the 
drawing flat upon the surface of the milk, taking 
it up expeditiously, and hanging it. by one corner 
till it drains and di ies. The milk must be per- 
fectly free from cream, otherwise it will grease 
the paper. To prevent the lead from smearing, 
the loose particles should first be taken off with 
a dry hair pencil, or even by blowing it. SUGAR OF WHEY.—(Saccharum Seri Laclis.) 
(FROM THE GAZETTE OF HEALTH FOR AUGUST.) 
This article, dissolved in water, is much employed in Ital 
and France as a common beverage in pulmonary consumption 
and some Italian physicians suppose that it possssses the pow* 
of correcting the scrofulous habit, and that it is very superic 
to the decoction of sarsaparilla (simple or compound) as an alt* 
rative, or “ purifier of the blood,” &c. The process by whic 
this article is obtained is thus described by Valgamoz an 
Lichtenstein;—“The fresh whey, after making cheese, i 
concentrated by evaporation over a gentle heat, after which i 
is put into moulds and dried in (he sun. This is called “ suga 
of milk cakes.” A solution of these cakes in water, after bein; 
clarified with the white of egg, is evaporated to the consistenc 
of syrup, and crystallised in a cool place.” It has a peculia 
soft sweet taste, and is soluble in hot water. A solution of i 
in water, in the proportion of an ounce to a quart, has th 
flavour of fresh cheese whey, and is very grateful to the palat 
and stomach. Like cheese whey, it acts gently on the bowels 
The syrup of the Iceland moss, made by dissolving three ounce 
of the sugar of whey in a pint of (he decoction of Iceland moss 
is much recommended as a nutritious and corrective article ii 
cases of pulmonary and mesenteric consumption. 
Dr. Rouelle, who speaks very highly of the effects of thi 
composition in the above ca«es, recommends (wo table spoonful 
to be taken three or four times a day, chiefly as an article o 
diet. A considerable, quantity of the sugar of whey has beei 
lately imported from Italy. It has the no small recommenda 
tion of being incapable of doing mischief, and from the benefi. 
cial effects we have frequently observed from the free use o 
fresh cheese whey in cases of scrofula and pulmonary consump- 
tion, we are disposed to think more favourably of the sugar o 
whey as an alterative than of sarsaparilla, or (he tisans of France 
or Italy. It is said that a weak solution of the sugar of whey 
(half an ounce to a pint) mixed with an equal quantity of fresh 
cow’s milk, is much more easily digested in the stomach ofa con* 
sumptive or debilitated subject than cither cow’s or ass’s milk.

To prevent Injury by Lightning to Stacks.— 
A simple preventive from injury by lightning to corn ami hay 
ricks, is that of merely putting an inverted broken bottle on 
the point where the thatch terminates; instead of which a spar 
or spiral pinnacle of reed is placed at the summit, both of 
which arc, with the exception of iron, the best conductors of 
the electric fluid, and are the general cause of the accidents 
which occur from lightning; whereas glass and sealing-wax 
are non-conductors, and therefore repel the fluid instead of

work a gradual Change therein; remarkably relieving thofe who have natu- 
rally a weak Conftitution, or have abufed a good one by eating too much or 
too various f ood, hard Drinking, or other Irregularities; infomuch that very 
many of all Ranks, by the Ufe of it alone, have preferved their Health for a 
Number of \ears together; though they lived more irregularly, and ufed lefs 
Exeicife than Prudehce didfated; many of whom on all Occasions declare in 
the moft fanguine Manner, what the Inventor himfelf never pretended to, viz. 
that this Medicine alone will cure all Dilorders, and that thofe who ufe it will 
never have Occafion for phyfical Attendance.—Dr. Anthony Daffy never enter- 
tained or propagated fo abfurd a Notion; he knew it to be impoffible for any 
one Medicine to be a Panacea, that is, a Cure for every Difeafe ; many of 
which originate from quite different Caufes. But when it is considered that 
this Medicine cures or relieves many chronical, and fome acute Difeafes, 
atiiing from catching Cold, ts’c. that are fo extremely common as to be almoft 
univerfal ; in this Senfe my Elixir may be truly called an Univerfal Medicine; 
by uflng which, and perufing attentively thefe few Inftrudtions, moft People 
will be enabled to underftand their refpeclive Complaints, and to cure or re- 
lieve them, at a trifling Expence. 
Perhaps fome may think that mote is here fald in Praife of this Elixir, than 
any Medicine, however great its Virtues, can deferve ; Such Perfons fhould be 
told, what is well known to Phyficians, that four or five principal Drugs, 
fkilfully managed, arc ail that are neceffary to cure every Diforder poflible to 
removed by the whole Materia Medica ; and that almoft numberlefs Difeafes 
toy have one common Caufe ; conlequently whatever removes that Caufe 
f at the Root of fuch Difeafes—many herein after mentioned, though to 
afuptrficia! Obfcrver they may feem in their Nature to be extremely different, 
when inveftigated properly, appear to originate from bad Digefion or Obfiruc- 
t vs; which is the Reaion why this Medicine, by raftering- th£ one, and re- 
Vi’ig the other, is adapied to cure or relieve fuch a Variety of Complaints*, CHOLIG PAINS, BILIOUS COMPLAINTS; &c. 
rp HI S Elixir is well known to remove, often inftantly, Pains in the Sto- 
mach or Bowels, arifing from Wind, or fomething that difagrees with 
them. Take a full Wine Giafs of it at any Time, and if it doth not foon re- 
lieve the Pain, or procure Evacuation downwards, repeat the fame or a lefs 
Quantity every three or four Hours, or eftener, until the offending Matter is 
carried out of the Body. If there is a Sicknefs or Vomiting, take a Table 
Spoonful or two only, as the Stomach will bear, and repeat it frequently until 
the Caufe is removed. It the Cholic is bilious, owing to the Bile or Gall being 
too much in Quantity, or too acrid, which, inllead of going down the Bowels 
as it ought to do, often flows upwards into the Stomach and excites a Bitternels 
in the Mouth, Hiccup, Heart-burn, vomiting of green or yellow bitter Matter, 
feverifh Heat, &c. Firft, with repeated Doles of three, four, or more Table 
Spoonfuls of this Elixir carry off the offending Bile by Stool; and afterwards 
take One Spoonfull every Night for fome Time, to prevent a Return. 
Many have obflinate Head achs, and infinite Numbers are much fubjedl to 
Loofeneffes, with or without Chohc Pains ; fomething indigefied is almoft always 
the Caufe of fuch Diforders; to remove which, take a Giafs of this Elixir ; 
repeat the fame in two or three Days ; and afterwards One Spoonful every 
Night will by Degrees reftore perfect Digeltion, and prevent Returns of fuch 
Complaints, 
GOUT and RHEUMATISM. 
Qp H E Gout is either hereditary, or brought on by irregular Living, eating 
too much, drinking Wines abounding with Tartar, ufing little or no Exer- 
cife, &c. Hence the Stomach not perfectly digefting ti e Food, inftead of 
the Blood receiving a foft nutritious Chyle, it fooner or later becomes loaded 
with grot's or fharp Particles, that if not thrown off by Urine, the Pores of 
the Skin, and other Outlets (to which End Exercife greatly conduces) fuoner 
or later fail on the Joints and Ligaments of the Feet, Hands, &c. producing a 
Crijh or regular Pit; -which is an Effort of Nature to throw off from theCon- 
ftitution the gouty Matter. But if Nature is unable to bring on fuch Fit, as 
often happens in o!d.Age, or from improper Treatment; an irregular Gout is 
produced, which becoming more and more inveterate, too frequently bids De- 
fiance to all Medicine. The Efteem this Elixir lias ever been held in by all 
Ranks of People, for the Prevention or Relief of this Diforder, is fuch, that it 
is unnecefiary to fay much of it here. In the Fit take i or 2 Spoonfuls every 
Night, which will not only promote Perfpiration through the Pores of the 
Skin, and drive out fome of the peccant Matter that Way ; but affift Nature to 
throw off copioufly, by thick turbid Urine, the Load of gouty Matter which 
fhe is at that Time endeavouring to dffeharge by the Kidneys. When the Fit 
js gone off, take two Spoonfuls, or fufneient to keep the Body a little lax, an 
Hour or two before Dinner every Day, which will not only carry off by Urine, 
infenhb'e Perfpiration, and other Evacuations, more or lefs of the gouty Matter 
that may have made its Way into the Blood ; but by promoting perfect Digef- 
tiori, will firik at the Root of the Difeafe ; for as the digeftive Powers increafe, 
lets and lefs Crudities pafs into the Blood, fo that a Quantity fufficient to 
form .a fucceeding Fit is longer and longer in accumulating- By obferving thefe 
ufing moderate Exercife, and living temperately, very many hav$ 
either intirsly prevented Returns of the Fits; or they have been rendered lefs 
and Ids violent. In the Rheumatifm, take every lecond or third Night, going 
to Bed, four, five, or more Spoonfuls, fo as to procure feveral loofe Stools the 
next Day; every intermediate Night, take one Spoonful only ; and whether you 
take a large or fmall Dofe, promote Peffpiration, when in Bed, by warm 
pings. Flannels, GRAVEL and STONE,

ditary Diipoiition to breed them. Water impregnated in the Bowels of the 
Earth with deny [ articles, (as is evident from the Cruft that the pureft Well- 
Water form;, on the Infldes of Tea-Kettles) Wines abounding with Tartar, 
turbid , 'Jes, &c. but principally Iniligejiion ; hence the univerfal Ule, and great 
Service ol this Elixir in thefe Complaints, When Digeftion is very imperfectly 
performed, inftead ot good Chyle, a Fluid loaded with grofs Particles is gene- 
rated in toe Stomach, which palling into the B!ocd do not always go off freely 
with the Urine by the Kidnies, but caufe Obrudliohs therein. 
A Grain ol Gravel, from whatever Caife produced, being lodged in one of 
the Kidnies, if not afterwards carried down the Ureter, and expelled the Body, 
may in Time increafe into a Stone, by receiving Layer over Layer of ftony 
Matter, (like as a Cruft is formed on the Inftde of a Chamber-pot that is con- 
ftantiy ufed, but not c'eanled). Thofe who are troubled with Gravel or Stone 
have all, or raoft of thefe Symptoms; a Naufea or Vomiting, caufed by Ccnfent 
of the Nerves of the Stomach, and Kidneys; Pain in the Small of the Back, 
fometimes acute, fometimes dull, which is generally worfe after eating, from 
the Stomach and Bowels being diftended and prefiing on the Kidneys ; fome- 
times at firft little Urine and pale, at other Times very foul, bloody, Coffee- 
coloured, purulent, or with an Oiiinefs on its Surface, caufed by Gravel or 
Stone wounding and inflaming the Part in which it lodges ; Spafms, Waitings 
of the Body, teveiilh Heat, Coftivenels, Drowfinefs ; Numbncfsof the Thigh 
and keg on the Side affected, caufed by the Nerves of the Loins being preffed 
oi irritated by the Gravel or Stone, as it makes its Way down through the 
narrow Pipe, cal’ed »he Ureter, which conveys the Urine from the Kidney to 
the Bladder. This Elixir, by its diuretic Quality, promotes the Expulfion of 
the gravelly Matter in a gentle eafy Manner. In the Fit, take 3 or 4 Spoonfuls 
going to Bed, and if neceflary 1 or 2 each Morning, fo as to procure 2 or 3 
Stools in 24 Hours ; by which the Body will be much cooled, and the Bowels, 
being kept empty, will not pre’fs on the Kidneys or Ureters, confequently the 
Defcent of the Gravel or fmall Stones, thro’ them to the Bladder, will be faci- 
litated. If the Stones are rough or angled, fo as to cut and wound in the Paf- 
fage, whence violent Pain, bloody Urine, tsT are produced, take plentifully of 
Oil of Almonds, Gum Arabic diflblvcd in Barley-Water, Water in which 
Marflimallows or Linfeeds have been boiled, or the like; thee befmear or 
make flippery the Ureters, fo that the Gravel or Stone arrives with much more 
Eafe at the Bladder. Out of the Fit, the Accumulation of more Gravel, by 
the daily Ufe of 1 or 2 Spoonfuls, and moderate Exercife, is totally or very 
much prevented ; as it keeps the Body from being coftive, gently cleanfes the 
Kidneys, and prevents Lodgments of gravelly Subftances therein ; and above ail, 
by promoting good Digeftion, it eradicates the chief Caufe of thefe Diforders 1 
fo that a very great Number of Perfons, whofe Lives were a Burthen to them, 
have by Degrees been cured, or greatly relieved. 
ASTHMA, J UNDICE, DROPSY. 
*"p H E S E Diforders, originating from Indigeftion and ObftrucFions, are 
cured or relieved by this Medicine. One or two Table Spoonfuls, taken 
every or every other Night, increafing the Dole now and then, fo as to procure 
two or three Stools, greatly relieve the moift Afthma. 
The Jaundice, which is known by the yellow Tinge the Bile gives to the 
Skin, fcsV, is generally foon cured by a W ine Glafs, or as much taken, going 
to Bed, as will procure 3 or 4 Stools every Day. 
The Dropfy often fucceeds the Afthma, or Jaundice, and may be brought on 
by drinking large Draughts of cold Water, efpecially when the Body is hot;  Spirits, Wine, or Ale too freely. In that univerfal Dropfy, called the 
Anafarca, which tills the Legs firft, pitting on being prefsd with the Finger, 
and increafing upwards by Degrees; the Patient never fweats, the Urine is 
pale, thin, and little in Quantity. Women about their 50th Year, or at the 
Time they ceafe to be out of Order, if of a fat, lax Habit of Body, are very 
fubjecl to this Difeale ; abb, thofe who are old, fit much, are ftudious, or 
■whole Employment is about the Water, fuch as Fifhers, Dyers, Fullers, &c. 
Though it is very difficult to cure this Kind of Dropfy when confirmed, it is 
fometimss eafily prevented in the Beginning by this Elixir. So foon as there ap- 
pears one oi the tirft Signs of its Approach, that is a Swelling about the Ancles 
and Legs towards Night, which difappears in the Morning, take a Wine Glafs 
or more, and repeat it every 3d or 4th Day, fo as to procure each Time a few 
Stools, and one or two Spoonfuls on each of the intermediate Days, and, if 
poflible, ufe moderate Exercife in a clear dry Air. In that dreadful Kind called 
the Afcites, or Dropfy of the Belly, in which the Urine depofits great Quan- 
tities of a Brick-coloured Sediment; the Doles of the Elixir muft be increafed 
fo as to procure a perpetual Loofcnefs, more or lefs great, as the Strength of 
the Patient can bear. 
PILES. 
*t HE Blood is brought to the Bowels and Anus from the Heart, by the Ar- 
teries, and is carried back by Veins which empty it into the Liver, whence 
it goes to the Heart again. The Dire&ion of thefe Veins being upwards, the 
Blood alcends through them fometimes in too fluggifh a Manner, and is very 
apt to ftagnate ; therefore when the Liver is obftruefed, or too turgid to receive 
the Blood on its Return, or the Bowels are too full from the Cortivenefs or Wind, 
and prefs on thefe Veins, they enlarge below about the Anus, and form the 
Piles; like as in bleeding in the Arm, or Foot, the Veins fwell below on a 
Bandage being applied. In lime, the Coats of thefe Veins diftend fo as to 
hang down in Bags, which often bleed. T he Biles may be brought on by too 
much Purging, and are fometimes attended with a bearing down of the Gut, 
from overftraining, or a Weaknefs of the Parts. 
To prevent or cure the Piles, keep the Body moderately open, fo that the 
Bowels being empty may not prefs on the Veins, and hinder the free Afcent 
of the Blood through them; at the fame Time, by attenuating Medicines, pro- 
mote its Fluidity, and freelngrefs into the Liver. But above all, take great 
Care to prevent the cold Air chilling the Parts; for where there are Obftruciions 
or the Blood is already too thick and fluggifli, by the cold Air turning ir almoft 
into a Jelly, its Motion upwards muft be very much impeded. This Elixir will 
attenuate, and promote the free Progrefs of the Blood to the Liver, and open 
Obftiunions in that Part; if one or more Spoonful are taken frequently, fo as 
to keep the Body moderately open. Such has been its Succds, that very many, 
whole Lives wore burthens to them, by taking it frequently, always ufing a 
Chamber Chair, or otherways preventing the Accefs of the cold and "re- 
ducing the Piles with the Finger touched with fweet Oil, Lard, or the like, have 
been cither perfectly cured, or fo relieved as not to have any more fevere Returns. 
Even thofe afftided with them to fuch an Excefs, that they are indurated, and 
cannot poftiblv be put up, hereby have been made comfortable. 
NERVOUS DISORDERS, SCURVY, SCROFULA, &c. 
T OWN ESS of Spirits, Tremors, Horrors, with all -the Train ofTCdrvous 
Complaints (whicY have their principal Foundation in a vitiated State of 
the Stomach and Bowels) are relieved by a Courfe of this Elixir in fmall Dofes,

t CHILDRENS" DISORDERS. 
the black Stools are not voided loon after Birth, Half a Tea Spoonful of 
my Elixir, mixed in Half a Table Spoonful of warm Milk, with the greateft 
. a*ety and Eafe, brings them away. Gripes are very dreadful Diforders, and, it 
15 Well known, fweep of nine in every ten of the infinite Number of Infants w ho 
in the Firll Months. The grand Caufe is the weak dLeftive Powers, and 
Bile, at this early Time of Life ; whence a Itrong Acid prevails, which 
coagulates the Milk, ffimulates and hurts the tender Coats of the Stomach and 
Bowels, caufing Crying, Wailing, Averfenefs to Sucking or Feeding,, four 
Belchings, vomiting of curdled Milk, and what are called inward Convulfions; 
Sometimes Convulfions of the whole Frame, Belly puffed up with Wind, Diffi- 
culty of Breathing, dry Cough, failing away of the Flefh, and very often an cx- 
ccfflve Difcharge of four green watery Stools. To cure thefe Diiorders, deftroy 
the Acid with any ablorbent Powders, fuch as the Apothecaries fell by the Name 
°f Crabs Eyes ; or feraped Chalk may do ; by giving in Milk half a Tea Spoon- 
ful of this Elixir, with as much of fuch Powder as will lie moderately heaped 
on a Shilling, 2 or 3 Times in 24 Flours, the Acid is corrected, the Digettion 
ftrengthened, and many Infants have been thereby preferved. Half a Tea 
Spoonful taken twice a Day carries off the Thruffl, Rafh, and other Eruptions 
on the Head and Body ; alfo removes Suppreffion of Urine, Convulfions, Start- 
ings in Sleep, and conftant Waking, which generally arife ffom fomething

Horfes of the Nobility and Gentry; final 1 Dofes, irom a Quarter to Half , 
a Pint, given as an Alterative e\ ery Day for feme Time, cleanfe the Blood and j 
Juices, open Obftrudions in the Lungs, enable them to keep their Wind when 
in Action, and there is the greateft R' alon to believe have prevented many be- 
coming broken-winded. It is a moft effectual Remedy for the 1 iripes, when 
the Horfe will not eat, cannot fta.e, is fever ih, and his Belly tucked up, GV. 
give a Pint or more for a Dole, and repeat it often until the Dilorder is removed.

I will amply reward thofe, who will prove, that intending to buy Dr. Anthony 
Daffy’s true original Elixir, they have had counterfeit Sorts impofed on'them. 
Be pleafed to take Notice, that no other Bottles than fat Quarts at 12s. and Pints at 6s.

Dr. ANTHONY DAFFY’s TRUE ORIGINAL RECEIPT, in my Cufody; that, 
though not jiconger than Wins, it keeps for any Number of Tears, in all Climates, becoming 
hy Age more and more mild, pleafant, cordial, and gretful to the Stomach and Bowels. 
And as Experience Jhews that it meliorates and fofum much more in large Bottles than

From the Right Honourable 
The Lord Chief Baron, 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapside, near St. Paul’s: 
Sir—I do you the juftice of acquainting you that my Son has derived very material benefit from 
your Worm Medicine, having been attacked by Worms above a year in the mofi formidable manner, 
and attended by a Phyfician of great {kill, my orvn terfonal friend, I ventured, hut net without 
acquainting him, to admirwfter your Medicine: the confequenCe was, that my Sou was relieved 
from a load which cannot with propriety be deferibed, but which appeared to be the nest of 
thefe pernicious animals; and 1 further acquaint you, that from the eafe and efficacy of the ope- 
ratien of your Medicine, I am encouraged to repeat it, if I perceive any of thofe fymptoms with 
which I am well acquainted, from very difagreeable experience. 
1 have alfo recommended your Medicine to my friends, particularly a family with which I am 
nearly conne&ed, where it has done very great ftrvice, and when we meet 1 (hall acquaint you with 
more inftances in which it has been attended with perfefl fuccefs, elpccially among poor children. 
I am, Sir, your very obedient Servant,

From the Honourable and Right Reverend 
The Lord Bifhop of Carlifle, 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Chcapfide, London. 
I readily embrace the opportunity your Letter affords me, of adding my teftimony to that 
of the LORD Chief BARON mfavour of your Worm Medicine; my eldeil Son havinga few 
moths ago derived very material benefit from the ufe of it. He had been unwell for feveral weeks 
previous to his taking it, appeared pale and emaciated, was languid, and complained frequently 
of pains in his head and fide. The Lord Chief Baron, w’ho had accidentally feen him in this ffate, 
fortunately recommended to me the trial of your Lozenges ; and that no time might be loft, or 
any miftakc occur in obtaining the genuine Medicine, fent me three dofes of it. The firff of thefs 
occafioncd avihblc amendment, and after the iecond dole every unpleafant fymptom dilappcared, 
but I judged it right to give the third, as the two former had agreed fo uncommonly well. From 
that time my Son has been in perfect health, and I certainly attribute his cure wholly to the cfficacy 
of the Worm Lozenges. I have fince recommended your Lozenges in feveral inftances, wherein 
I have the fatisfaftion to affure you, they have uniformly, been of grent fervicc. I ought to add, 
that from the nature of the effeft produced by them in my Son’s Cafe, I apprehend his complaints 
to have aiifen from an obftvuftioii between the ftomach and vifeera.

Sir—The LORD Chief BARON having done me the honour to ftnte his cldrft Son’s Cafe, 
and recommended that my Son Ihould try your Worm Lozenges—as their Cafes were perfectly 
analogous—hedidfo lait June, and to my great happinefs found immediate relief; and he has,

•which, notxMthJlanding the Frefcriptions of the nojl eminent Phyfiaans for three years, fea 
bathimr and every ether means that could he thought of, wore him down to an alarming degree, and I 
dreaded the moft fatal conferences. To his Lorafnip’s humanity, and th.i ufc of your Lozenges, 
I impute my Son’s exiftence noiv, and if you require any further teftimony, I (hall always be 
jeadv to gtvt it And remain, Sir,

From E. W. Maston, Efq. 
Hedley- HaU, Northumberland. 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapsidk, London, 
Sir—I am happy to inform you that my Daughter, aged 18 years, has, derived the mcfl fur- 
prifing benefit from your Worm Lozenges, She had long been weakly, pale, and emaciated; and 
though One fejt an appetite to eat, yet the fight of meat was difgufting to her. Our heft medical 
men differed 11 their opinions refpefting her diforder : one pronounced it a chlorosis, another, 
a ftrong tendency to an atrophy; but my Apothecary conjedhired it might arife from Worms ; 
and having heard the higheft charafter of your Worm Lozenges, recommended a trial of thgm, 
■which, in a very fhort time evinced their efficacy, and removed her complaints.—Gratitude im- 
pofes on me the propriety of troubling you with this, which you are at liberty to ufc in any man- 
ner you pleafe. With great regard I remain,

From an eminent Apothecary at Edinburgh. 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapside, London. 
Sir—I am happy to fee, by the refpeftablc Names affxedto your Bills, that your Worm Lozenges con- 
tinue to maintain the character which they fo well deferve. I hear every day of Cures performed by 
them in many of the moft obftinatc Cafes. Some of the firft Medical Charafters in this city 
have, with that candour Jor which they are fo eminently difingui/hed, preferibed your Lozenges with 
the greateft fuccefs, andt it is certainly the moft efficacious vermifuge I have ever ufed, and the fuccefs 
attending the medicine entitles it to my wanneft commendation : I may alfo add, that fame of the 
profeijprs of the college, mention it as the moft effeftual in Wrorm Cafes, of any Medicine they are 
acquainted with. I have fome Worms in my poffeffion, voided by a Son of Colonel Rod yard, 
by taking your Lozenges, after every other Medicine had failed ; which WWrms are of a very 
lingular and uncommon form. One of them has the appearance of a crab, and two refcmbles 
the caterpillar. I have promifed them to the Profeffor of Midwifry, to exhibit when he le&ures 
on Worms. Of Colonel Rudyard’s veracity I cannot have the fmallcft doubt, or ffiould lul- 
pe£l fome impofition, from the worms being of fuch an extraordinary nature, and no perfon, to 
whom I have (hewed them, fc«ms to know fo what fpccies they belong. 
I am, Dear Sir, with much efteem, 
Edinburgh, y our very obedient humble Servant,

From Thomas Vinn, Efq, 
Vinn-Place, near Derry. 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Ckeapfide, London. 
Sir—I have the pleafure to inform you that your Wrorm Lozenges have performed a moft 
ptiracu/ous Cure 011 my deleft Son, who, for fome months, had been troubled with Worms, which 
excited a very dangerous illnefs, anfl having been given over by every Medical Gentleman 
who attended hap, J expedit'd nothing but his diffolution, when of mine, who had juft •ome from London, advlfed me to try the effcCl of your Lozenges, which he fald were in very 
high repute, and had performed many extraordinary Cures, and prefented me with lomc which 
he had brought with him. 1 yielded to his perfuahon, and found my Son much benefited by 
taking them twice, and by perfevering therein he is completely cured You will oblige me by

I have the honour to be, Sir, your humble Servant, 
Vinn-Pla.ce, July 20, 1799- 1. VINN. 
From a NOBLE EARL. 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapside, London. 
Sir,,—I underhand from my Apothecary that the effeCl ot your Worm Medicine on my Ser- 
vant was complete in removing an obllruClion in the firfl Palfages and Bowels, but there was no 
appearance of Worms ; fhe had been unable to get up from her Bed for above nine weeks : if fhe 
lay down or flood up the pain about the region of the flomach was increafed ; fhe had not cat 
folid meat for many weeks. Every medicine that two Phyficians and an able Apothecary could 
venture to preferibe, was given to her, but without proper effeCl. 1 he Warm Bath alleviated tne 
pain, but that was only ternporary relief. Alter taking your medicine two days in fucceflion, fhe 
got up and began to eat meat, and from that time flic mended apace. Whenever the bowels are ob- 
llruCled, your medicine alone relieves her. lam, Sir, 
Your humble Servant, 
Though Mr. Chino is not at Liberty to infert the name of the Noble Earl, he has obtained his 
Lordfhip’s Permiffion to fhew the original Letter to any of the Nobility who may doubt the au- 
thenticity of the above. 
From R. C. KELLOW, Efq. Salifbury. 
To Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapside, London. 
Sir—Having for fome months had violent sick FjEAn-Acus, pains in my stomach and bowels, 
an offenfive breath, a continual wajling of my flesh, and, at the fame time, a voracious appetite, 
very rejlkfs nights, and frequent Jlartings in my deep, I was perfuaded to make trial of your Worm 
Lozenges, and accordingly purchafed a Box ot them, which, by following the Directions, 
brought off a conjiderable quantity of Worms of different fizes, and almoft injlantly relieved me; 
ever fince which 1 have been free from complaints, and enjoy perfcCl health. My cafe you are at 
liberty to make known for the benefit of the afflifled. R. C. KELLOW'. 
AS WORMS when generated in the human body are the caufc of fo 
many internal afflictions, which, by being mijiaken, may prove fatal to the 
conflitution of Men, Women, and Children, Mr. CHING prefumes the 
tollowing ufeful information will be iound generally acceptable, 
Defcription of Worms, 
And the Symptoms by which they are known. 
The T/ent a, or Tape Worm, fo called from its flatnofs and rcfcmblance to tape, is from two thirds 
of an inch to forty feet in length, and has from one joint to fix hundred. The fymptoms occa- 
f.oiied by thefe worms are various, but arc generally accompanied with pains about or below the 
flomach, pains in the head and thighs, lownefs of fpirits, an irregular appetite, and frequently, 
b\ their great irritation, they occafion Fits, Convulfions, and ail its train of alarming fymptoms; 
th,efe are the mojl dangerous worms to be afflibied with, and the mojl difficult to be eradicated. 
The Tf.reg, or Rotund Worm, is from twp inches to a foot in Length ; may be known by pains 
in the flomach or bowels, a difagreeable fmell of the breath, itching in the nofe, an unhealthy 
look or a flatting and grinding of the teeth when flccp ing 
The Ascarides, fo called from their continual motion, are fmall white worms, with fharp- 
pninted heads; are known either, by a pain and emptinefs of the flomach when failing, or by a 
difagreeable uoubleforae itching, which is often iniflakeu for the Piles. DIRECTIONS. 
THE yellow Lozenges fhould be taken the lafl thing at night, and the brown ones the firft 
thing the following morning.—'Grown perions mav ealily fwaliow them wh«le in a little bread, 
well foaked in gruel, or any other liquid.—Children may alfo take them in like manner, if the 
Lozenges arc broken into fmall pieces ; otherwife, they may he grated and mixed with jelly* 
mailed rpple, ora fmall quantity of any liquid. 
Supp< r Ihould be eaten two hours before the yellow Lozenges are taken; and brcakfafl an Hour 
or two alter the brown ernes. Broth, Tea, Gruel, or Barley-Water, made palatable with fait, or with 
fugar, fhould be frequently drank during the day ; and the fame care oblerved not to get cold, as ail 
other opening phytic, requires. 
If there is any acidity or fowlnefs in the flomach that requires to be thrown off, the brown Lo- 
7cnges may occalion a flight vomiting , which is attended with much benefit, and fhould be en- 
couraged by drinking a little warm milk and water. 
DOSES. 
CHILDREN of one year old, may take a third part of a yellow Lozenge the laft thing at 
night, and a third part of a brown one the next morning 
Children of tour years old, may take one yellow and one brown Lozenge'; Children of fix or 
eight years old, may take one and half; and Perfons of twelve years old and upwards, may, in like 
manner, take from tA’o to four yellow Lozenges at night, and alike quantity of brown Lozenges 
the next morning ( but as conftitutions differ fo very materially, it is impoffible to laydown one 
general rule; therefore perfons of all ages fhould, for the frjl dofe, take a much lefs quantity than is here 
ordered: and atter once taking the Lozenges, they can better judge for themfelvcs how manv will 
be fulficient to operate five or fix times, which, in molt cafes, may be necelfary, as Worms 
frequently elude the power of very gentle dofes : fhould this Medicine (from too fmall a dole 
being taken) have no vifible operation, Perfons may rcfl affured of its being perfectly innocent, 
and inch as can do no in jury to the moll delicate conflitution. 
The fccond dofe fhould be taken two or three days after the firft, and in a week after take a 
third dofc, which, perhaps, will be found fuflicient to dcllroy every kind of worm, as well as 
to cleanse the ftomich and bowels of whatever is offenfivc, particularly that flimy humour from 
•whence worms proceed ; but fhould any of the complaints continue, this courfe fhould be re- 
peated at the end of a fortnight, three weeks, or a month ; and though there may be no appear- 
ance of Worms during the operation of this medicine, yet it feldom fails to remove mail internal 
complaints; and Worms are frequently difeharged many dayr after taking it, fo confirmed as to 
Jiave only the appearance of fkins. 
The operation of this medicine will depend on the flate of the body. The firft dofe, by ftrength- 
ening the ftomacb and bowels, and diflodging the crudities with winch they were loaded, often 
prevents a fecond dofe from having any vifible effeft, in which cafe a larger quantity fhould be 
taken for future dofes. Children who cannot be prevailed on to take the brown Lozenges, rnay 
take the yellow Lozenges at night, and the next day take a fuflicient quantity of Senna tea, fweet- 
med with fugar, to operate four or five times. 
Should the Lozenges become mouldy by keeping, the nature of the medicine is fuch, that it 
will not receive the leaf! injury thereby, but the mould may be eafijy wiped off. 
This medicine, though perfectly innocent, fhould not be taken during the period of a loofenefs ; 
every thing opening, except Rhubarb, being then improper. — 
N.B, Every paper of Directions is thus figned by the Patentee. 
As opening Phyfic on all occafiens, for Perfons who are notMuhjcft to Worms, CHiKr.’s''P»t«nt J! 
Worm Lozenges are fuperior to every other Medicine; will.'keep good any length of time, aim 
in ail climates. '
